What This Makeup Artist Does With A Cotton Ball Is Bizarre, But Totally Worth Trying

If you’re into the beauty scene, you know that makeup hacks abound. Some are cool, some are useless, and some are just plain weird, but when you find one that works, it can save you tons of time and money.

And if there’s one thing that almost every makeup lover under the sun wants, it’s longer lashes. You could wear falsies or invest in $40 mascara, but professional makeup artist Huda Kattan of Huda Beauty has another solution. If you have a cotton ball, a spoolie, and some mascara, you can achieve the look of wispy false eyelashes for a fraction of the cost.

As a contact lens user, I’m just going to throw this out there. If soft lenses are part of your daily routine, this hack might not be the one for you. If they aren’t, grab a cotton ball and have at it! This hack mimics the effect of tube mascara without all of the harsh chemicals.
